Instruccions de seguretat
Observeu sempre les següents precaucions de seguretat per evitar descàrregues elèctriques, incendis i lesions greus.
- Ensure the charger is connected to a power supply with the correct voltage as specified on the charger's label.
- No carregueu bateries no recarregables.
- No exposeu el carregador a la pluja ni a condicions humides. L'entrada d'aigua al carregador augmentarà el risc de descàrrega elèctrica.
- No feu servir el carregador si el cable o l'endoll estan danyats.
- Do not operate the charger in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust.
- Keep the charger's ventilation openings clear to prevent overheating. The built-in fan requires unobstructed airflow.
- Desendolleu el carregador de la font d'alimentació quan no l'utilitzeu o abans de netejar-lo.
- Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the charger. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
- Charge batteries only within the recommended temperature range (20°C - 25°C for optimal charging).

Configuració
- Desembalatge: Carefully remove the charger from its packaging. Inspect for any damage that may have occurred during shipping.
- Col·locació: Place the charger on a stable, flat surface in a well-ventilated area. Ensure there is sufficient space around the charger for proper airflow, especially around the fan vents.
- Connexió d'alimentació: Insert the charger's power plug into a suitable electrical outlet. Ensure the outlet provides the correct voltage as indicated on the charger's rating label.
Instruccions de funcionament
- Inserció de la bateria: Align the battery with the charging slot on the charger. Slide the battery firmly into place until it clicks, ensuring a secure connection.
- Procés de càrrega: Once the battery is correctly inserted and the charger is powered, the charging process will begin automatically. The charger is equipped with LEDs that will indicate the charging status. Refer to the charger's label or specific LED pattern guide for detailed status indications (e.g., charging, fully charged, error).
- Temps de càrrega: The charging time is relatively short but varies depending on the battery's voltage and capacity. Larger capacity batteries will take longer to charge.
- Temperatura de càrrega òptima: For best results and to prolong battery life, charge batteries when their temperature is between 20°C and 25°C. The charger's integrated fan helps manage heat during the charging process.
- Extracció de la bateria: Once charging is complete (indicated by the LEDs), press the battery release button (if present) and slide the battery out of the charger.
Manteniment
- Neteja: Disconnect the charger from the power supply before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior of the charger. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Keep the ventilation openings free of dust and debris.
